Flow Effect
A type of animation that creates fluid, continuous motion between states or along scroll, often used for page transitions. Flow effects add polish and help users maintain context during navigation. Framer's transitions support various flow effects between pages and component states.
Effect
Effects
A visual modification applied to elements such as blur, shadow, glow, or blend mode that enhances appearance. Effects add depth, focus attention, and create sophisticated visual compositions. Use effects purposefully—overuse can slow performance and create visual clutter.
Noise
Effects
A grainy texture effect added to backgrounds or elements for visual interest and tactile quality. Subtle noise can add depth and sophistication, reducing the flatness of solid colors. Apply noise sparingly—heavy noise can look dated and affect performance.
Page Transition
Motion
The animation or effect that occurs when navigating between pages, providing visual continuity. Page transitions can make navigation feel seamless and help users maintain context. Framer supports various transition effects between pages.
Toggle
Components
A switch-style control for binary choices, indicating on/off or enabled/disabled states with immediate effect. Toggles differ from checkboxes in that they typically apply changes immediately rather than requiring a submit action. Use clear labeling so users understand what enabled and disabled states mean.
